I know that the timer will go off soon and I can take a short break. I think just knowing that helps me to push myself a little more. Sort of like when there's something in the microwave and I try to finish whatever I'm doing before the timer goes off!! I know it's silly but I've done that as long as I can remember.

I know what you mean, though, about things taking longer to do. I can't stand as long as I used to be able to. My legs, especially my left one, have gotten weaker.
